Hmm, in this case, I'd suggest you don't install the HTML docs as
well, since they are >5MB installed (Debian's apache doesn't yet
handle .html.gz's transparently, if I could install them gzipped, that 
would be down to 1.6MB), while the info files are only 500kB.

So I think the only valid case would be installing the info files
without the html ones.
